Zaku II: remind's me of garma's zakuII, has a sem line on the maching gun though.
Guntank: looks like the roll out colors and look's like i just came from a mud bath and has no seam lines.
Gouf: remind's me of the mg, i can really get over the blue that you used and it look's like it's a custom that's been in the desert for afew hours and once again no seam lines.
i say your zaku looks the best.

Good weathering! I keep meaning to get some cheap kits to practice weathering effects on. I like the muddy dirty look. ttahaj

hey thanks for the kind words guys...yeh to be honest i find weathering much easier to do than getting a clean factory roll out look! lol
I dunno, perhaps i dont have to "care" so much about the clean lines, and let the nature of the medium take its course!

oh Mud, thanks for your feedback.
yeh, the Zak is prob my best HGUC project so far...but ya never know! I wanted a real dessert based suit..and I never had Garma's suit in mind when I decided on the colours...if anything it was prob inspired by the F2's from the 0083 series..
With the Tank..i know what you mean about panel lines...but I was going for the "mud covered" look from the waist down..I suppose it could be a cleaner finish..prob too much mud! lol
The Gouf...well the panel lines are there...I used a lighter tone for highlights (simulated sand / mud lines)..cept they might be hard to see in the darker colours...

I like it! I don't see many people doing HGUC weathering jobs. Good to know I'm not the only one. What techniques did you use to do that?

hehehe yeh hope u win the Rogue mate! ![:)](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/smiley.png) i had to take off the zeta and the ZZ as I had a good offer to buy it now. He sure was keen! paid straight away! ![:D](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/grin.png) Hypothetically speaking...IF you were to buy them, how much will you offer for them? I have absolutely no idea how to value them..Guess i view them as a piece of art sicne i put my time, effort and soul into the presentation and finish of each piece...priceless. ![???](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/huh.png)
